    Summer Vacation. Chapter 41

    “Do you love her?”

    Lottie shrugged, and Alice watched her silently, chewing over her thoughts in her mind,

    “Al?”

    “Uh huh?”

    “How will I know?”

    Alice sat back and crossed her legs, thinking about love and how to answer that question, when the only answer she could come up with was that somehow you just simply know,

    She thought about the film she’d had done for Lottie’s birthday present, the one thing she could think of that fulfilled Lottie request when Alice had asked her several weeks before what it was that she really wanted, if she could have anything at all. She wanted their past, she wanted to know about those little stories, the holidays they took, the friendships that turned into lasting relationships, the births of their children, their marriages and break-ups, she wanted it all because there were times when despite their brewing closeness she still felt unbelievably left out.

    Alice reached for her hand across the table, Banjo had Che pinned into a cushion on the floor as he less than politely tried to relieve him of the rest of his ice cream, “You just know …” Alice offered half-heartedly, “I know that sounds like a crap answer but I think it’s true, you just know, and when the time is right, you’ll know whether or not you want to say it,”

    Lottie smiled, “Thanks Al,”

    “I just have to stop by the house and pick up Angie’s play kit,” Bette mumbled as they rushed along to the car,

    Lottie ran to keep up, wondering what made Bette so late, even with the downtown traffic on a Friday afternoon she was usually so punctual,

    “Where’s the dog?” Bette asked, seeming to notice something was missing,

    “I left him with Alice,” Lottie panted, out of breath, “she said she could write her assignment and watch Banjo and Che too, Bette …? Why are we running?”

    Bette slowed to a fast walk, “I um …”

    Lottie caught up with her, then suddenly noticed there was a blush different to the kind of blush you get from running in Bette’s cheeks,

    “Bette?”

    “I … erm … I have something cooking in the oven for dinner and I don’t want to burn it,”

    6. Hey all, thanks, I’m not stopping, no way … don’t get me wrong, it’s just after chronic writers block I always get super edgy/anxious before posting again … anyway … for Nanc, the link to the spotlight on the main discussions board is http://discussion.l-word.com/viewforum.php?f=73 I hope that works, it starts new each week on a Sunday :-D, I’ll reply to comments properly next post … and it won’t be weeks and weeks I promise!

    7. Sofa, I’m really glad your back with this story, I’v really missed it. I love reading about how the whole family interacts and can’t wait for Lotties’ party. Thank you. Md

    8. What a pleasant surprise to find this chapter tonight! I still love this story Sofa and I’ll keep reading if you keep writing! B&T caught out by Angie…LMAO!

    9. You know that I love this story. I can never get enough of it. I can picture Bette and Tina enjoying a little time to themselves and relaxing after the little excersie session. I can also see Angie’s reaction after catching her moms in the relaxation mode after the exercise session.

    10. I love the way you weave together an emotional maturity, psychological insight and beautiful love making. This is my favorite paragraph.”Bette cleared the plates from the table, leaving Tina to sit and think, the summer time was like a role reversal for them, with Tina the one working the most hours and Bette mostly off during the day, it gave them time to switch roles and remember that sitting so firmly in ideas of who they were based on jobs and money was the thing that almost killed them in the first place.”

    11. hey baby, i told you liked this chapter, and you didn’t dissapoint with the rest:) hahahaha, tina and bette got caught…thats funny. i hope it never happens to me…well anyway, i’m just saying, locks are good! and thankx for being realistic about the one issue we’re all always avoiding–these people are parents and i know that i often write their kids ‘away at a babysitter’ which makes me laugh that no one ever calls me a fool for doing it. anyhoo, great chapter, i’m thrilled you posted, and yeah…hehe…you’re the cutest. xo

    12. HAHAHA! Bette & Tina caught red-handed by their own daughter. Funny and embarrassing as hell! Welcome back, sofa!!! I’m glad you’ve come around that dreaded Writer’s Block. And I don’t see myself getting tired of reading updates on this story anytime soon. I hope you’ll get on a roll again but if not, don’t worry and pressure yourself. We’re patient, we’ll just wait for your next post whenever it comes. Thank you!!! ;>

    13. So happy to see you back, sofa! Very glad to hear you’re not thinking of stopping ’cause this just gets better every chapter. Love Angie’s gross reaction and look forward to Lottie’s birthday bash. Enjoy the spotlight and I may drop by for that hot chocolate…mmmm.
